Microrobots have attracted considerable attention due to their extensive applications in microobject manipulation and targeted drug delivery. To realize more complex micro-/nanocargo (e.g., encapsulation release) biological applications, it is highly desirable endow microrobots with a shape-morphing adaptation dynamic environments. Here, environmentally adaptive (SMMRs) been developed by programmatically encoding different expansion rates pH-responsive hydrogel. Due combination magnetic...
Microscale intelligent actuators capable of sensitive and accurate manipulation under external stimuli hold great promise in various fields including precision sensors biomedical devices. Current microactuators, however, are often limited to a multiple-step fabrication process multimaterials. Here, pH-triggered soft microactuator (<100 μm) with simple structure, one-step process, single material is proposed, which composed deformable hydrogel microstructures fabricated by an asymmetric...
Innate immunity can facilitate early brain injury (EBI) following subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH). Numerous studies suggest that pyroptosis could exacerbate extracellular immune responses by promoting secretion of inflammatory cytokines. Transforming growth factor-β-activated kinase 1 (TAK1) is a quintessential positively regulates inflammation through NF-κB and MAPK signaling cascades. However, the effects TAK1 on neuroinflammation in EBI SAH are largely unknown.Two hundred forty-six male...
Abstract The versatile manipulation of cross-scale droplets is essential in many fields. Magnetic excitation widely used for droplet due to its distinguishing merits. However, facile magnetic actuation strategies are still lacked realize multiscale manipulation. Here, a type magnetically actuated Janus origami robot readily fabricated including three-dimensional transport, merging, splitting, dispensing and release daughter droplets, stirring remote heating. allows untethered from ~3.2 nL...
A high-performance pure-nickel magnetically-actuated microrobot (Ni-MAR) is printed by a ‘femtosecond laser polymerization + sintering’ method with great potential applications in controlled locomotion fast-flowing blood and massive drugs delivery.
A method to reduce coherent noise in digital holographic phase contrast microscopy is proposed. By slightly shifting the specimen, a series of holograms with different patterns recorded. Each hologram reconstructed individually, while tilts complex amplitudes due specimen shifts are corrected plane by using numerical parametric lens method. Afterward, lateral displacements maps from compensated image registration Thus, all images have same distribution, but uncorrelated patterns. proper...
Nature-inspired magnetically responsive intelligent topography surfaces have attracted considerable attention owing to their controllable droplet manipulation abilities. However, it is still challenging for realize three-dimensional (3D) droplet/multidroplet transport in both horizontal and vertical directions. Additionally, the propulsion speed needs be improved. In this work, a 3D strategy based on microplates array (MMA) actuated by spatially varying periodic magnetic field proposed. The...

Functional microdevices based on responsive hydrogel show great promise in targeted delivery and biomedical analysis. Among state-of-the-art techniques for manufacturing hydrogel-based microarchitectures, femtosecond laser two-photon polymerization distinguishes itself by high designability precision, but the point-by-point writing scheme requires mechanical apparatuses to support focus scanning. In this work, predesigning holograms combined with lens phase modulation, multiple spots are...
Abstract Small-scale electromagnetic soft actuators are characterized by a fast response and simple control, holding prospects in the field of miniaturized robotics. The use liquid metal (LM) to replace rigid conductor inside can reduce rigidity enhance actuation performance robustness. Despite research efforts, challenges persist flexible fabrication LM improvement performance. To address these challenges, we developed robust microplate actuator based on laser-induced selective adhesion...
Recurrence or early metastasis remains the predominant cause of mortality in patients with estrogen receptor positive (ER+) mammary carcinoma (MC). However, molecular mechanisms underlying initial progression ER+ MC to poorly understood. Trefoil factor 3 (TFF3) is an estrogen-responsive oncogene MC.
